Slide the washer and thread the nut onto the engine shaft.
Rotate the propeller clockwise so it is resting against the
lugs of the spinner backplate. Use a 7/16-inch box end
wrench to tighten the propeller nut. Never use pliers, as the
nut will not be tight enough, and could come loose.
Note
: It is suggested to read the engine instructions
included with your P-51 PTS Mustang at this time to
learn more on the care and operation of your
Evolution engine.
Step 4
Locate the three #4 x 5/8-inch sheet metal socket head
screws. Position the spinner cone onto the spinner
backplate, making sure it keys into the backplate. Use the
screws and a 2.5mm or 3/32-inch ball driver or hex wrench
to secure the spinner cone to the backplate.
